**SOLD** Smith & Wesson Model 39-2 Semi Auto Pistol in 9mm **Mfg 1976 - 1st Gen Semi Auto - Box, Papers, Cleaning Items and 2 Magazines**

Description:
**SOLD** For consideration is a very nice Smith & Wesson Model 39-2 semi auto pistol chambered in 9mm. The Smith & Wesson Model 39 is a semi-automatic pistol developed for the United States Army service pistol trials of 1954. After the Army abandoned its search for a new pistol, the Model 39 went on the civilian market in 1955 and was the first of Smith & Wesson's first generation semi-automatic pistols. During World War II, the German Walther P38 double action/single action pistol impressed American ordnance personnel so much that the Army Ordnance Corps issued a proposal for an American equivalent to the P38. In 1949, Smith & Wesson began development of the Model 39 chambered in 9×19mm Luger and it entered the market in 1955. It was the first U.S. designed double action (DA) semi-automatic pistol, and was designed to replace the venerable M1911A1. The 1911 was still extremely popular with law enforcement, military and civilian use, but only offered a single action trigger and a heavy steel frame. This particular example is in very good mechanical and physical condition with only a few light handling marks. The most major mark is on the back of the gun on the right side....there is one small mark about 3 or 4 rows down on the checkered area (seen best in photo 5). Otherwise the gun is very good. The grips are very nice being free of cracks or chips and having S&W medallions on both sides. The 4" barrel has a good bore with strong rifling. Sights are a blade front and adjustable rear. The pistol comes with box, papers, 2 magazines and paperwork.
